The Lofoten Islands are draped across the turbulent waters of the Norwegian Sea, far above the Arctic Circle. This rare wilderness outpost offers an untrammeled landscape of majestic mountains, deep fjords, squawking seabird colonies, and long, surf-swept beaches. Here, you can hike, ski, fish, ocean raft, or scuba dive. Lofoten is also one of the world’s northernmost sites for surfing and one of the best spots in the world to encounter Orcas. An incredible ship-based safari with the unique opportunity to swim with killer whales and humpbacks in the wild Norwegian waters and witness the dancing Northern Lights
